Last Saturday we attended the harvest party of my childhood dreams! A red barn, lights strung out in front over a hay-strewn dance area, tables of good food, live music for some of the dances, but recorded music for others so the musicians could dance themselves, a young person's party - with just a few parents looking on as chaperons, a bonfire with s'mores and hymn singing at the close. Yes, it was the sort of party my paper dolls used to attend on the living room floor. The sort I'd read about in books. The sort I'd always thought it would be fun to attend, but I thought were restricted to a day gone by. A sort of dream lived out. Being homeschooled is pretty amazing!
Dressed up warm even for dancing.

It was fun to have live music on a few dances, but we were glad we didn't have to play for every one. About halfway through the evening our fingers got to cold to play!
There was plenty of good food and pleasant conversation.
Doesn't it look like a fairy tale...uuhh harvest party?

A harvest party? It makes me think of Little Women and the Laura Ingalls Wilder books -- how delightful!
Hi Danielle! Yes indeed, a harvest party. I know its spring there, but here we're bringing in the harvest and donning jackets and scarves! Such fun!
